Frequently Asked Questions
Are rattan and wicker the same thing?
While people tend to use these words interchangeably, technically, rattan is a material whereas wicker is the style of weaving (typically with rattan but sometimes with other natural materials).
How should I care for my rattan chairs?
To effectively clean your rattan chairs (and other wicker furniture), you can use a soft-bristled paintbrush to remove dirt (especially from tight crevices). You can even use the brush attachment of your vacuum. Then, simply use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe everything down. Cushions should be cleaned separately.
